Both are written in Go. # vcluster vs traefik vcluster and traefik share 6 technologies: GitHub, sigs.k8s.io/controller-runtime, github.com/sirupsen/logrus, sigs.k8s.io/gateway-api, Prometheus, and github.com/hashicorp/go-hclog. Both are written in Go. - [loft-sh/vcluster](https://seerepo.com/r/loft-sh/vcluster): vCluster creates tenant clusters: fully isolated environments delivered as managed Kubernetes, or as the foundation for Slurm, Ray, Run:ai and inference clusters. Each gets its own API server, CRDs and RBAC, and runs on an existing cluster or standalone on bare metal. CNCF Certified Kubernetes. - [traefik/traefik](https://seerepo.com/r/traefik/traefik): The Cloud Native Application Proxy ## What they share and what sets them apart - In common: GitHub, sigs.k8s.io/controller-runtime, github.com/sirupsen/logrus, sigs.k8s.io/gateway-api, Prometheus, github.com/hashicorp/go-hclog - Only in vcluster: net/http, etcd, HashiCorp, SQLite, k8s.io/apiserver, github.com/olekukonko/tablewriter, golang.org/x/oauth2, github.com/invopop/jsonschema, github.com/go-openapi/loads, k8s.io/klog/v2, github.com/go-logr/logr, go.uber.org/zap, Kubernetes, k8s.io/cluster-bootstrap, k8s.io/metrics, k8s.io/pod-security-admission, github.com/docker/docker, k8s.io/kubelet - Only in traefik: Gorilla, go-redis, github.com/kvtools/valkeyrie, github.com/patrickmn/go-cache, Redis, Consul, github.com/influxdata/influxdb1-client, github.com/kvtools/consul, github.com/kvtools/etcdv3, github.com/kvtools/redis, github.com/kvtools/zookeeper, InfluxDB, ext, github.com/containous/alice, github.com/go-kit/kit, github.com/valyala/fasthttp, Vite, React, React Router, github.com/spiffe/go-spiffe/v2, github.com/abbot/go-http-auth, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/credentials, github.com/rs/zerolog, OpenTelemetry, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace, github.com/go-acme/lego/v5, github.com/moby/moby/api, github.com/moby/moby/client, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/ec2, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/ecs, github.com/coreos/go-systemd/v22, github.com/go-kit/log, Knative, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/config, github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/ssm, github.com/prometheus/client_model, github.com/samber/slog-zerolog/v2, go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/bridges/otellogrus, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlplog/otlploggrpc, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlplog/otlploghttp, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlpmetric/otlpmetricgrpc, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlpmetric/otlpmetrichttp, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracegrpc, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracehttp, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/log, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/metric, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/log, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric, gopkg.in/natefinch/lumberjack.v2, knative.dev/pkg, Nomad, @traefik-labs/faency, react-infinite-scroll-hook, react-helmet-async, usehooks-ts, Framer, react-error-boundary, Chart.js, react-chartjs-2, react-icons ## Side by side | | vcluster | traefik | |---|---|---| | Size | 141,753 lines written, 554 code files | 267,829 lines written, 509 code files | | Who writes it | 1.3% of its commits signed by AI.
